This Wednesday, September 11 at 4:30 p.m., on the 24 Hours Channel, the team of the Center for Economics and Social Policies of the Universidad Mayor will direct a new chapter of the ""Explorers"" program.
This program, which aims to publicize in depth research and new discoveries in the field of biomedicine, engineering, innovation or astronomy generated by Chilean scientific centers, will focus this chapter on the various dimensions of inequality present in our society.
About the chapter "Chile and its inequalities"
Chile is among the 15 most unequal countries in the world. How is inequality measured? In the distribution of income and in the country is given by a very high concentration. In particular in the top 5% and specifically in the richest 1%, this is a constant that has remained relatively stable over the past 50 years and that according to different studies receives between 17 and 26% of the country's income.
What do we think about inequality? How does it manifest? Is it possible to correct it? On these topics we will talk on Wednesday, September 11 with Dr. Claudia Sanhueza, Director of the Center for Economics and Social Policies of the Universidad Mayor in a new chapter of Explorers, from the atom to the cosmos, of Canal 24 horas, TVN. The reports that the chapter will have will be:
- Inequality, elites, redistribution; segregation and human capital, by Jorge Atria and Rodrigo Pérez.
- The socio-environmental dimension of inequality by Mayarí Castillo and Aldo Madariaga.
- Inequality, behavior and use of time by Jorge Rosales and Alejandra Vásquez.
